WAINWRIGHT LOSE TO
IRMA BY 38-2 SCORE

On Thursday evening last the
Wainwright hockey team were truck-
ed over to Irma to mix it with the
Irma puck chasers. They lost the
encounter by the score of 3— 2, which
by this time is getting to be quite
a@ common occurrence. The ice was
heavy which slowed up the game
considerably. In all the hockey
“dished” up was of a low standard.

The game was only two minutes
old when Hendricks scored for Irma
putting the local boys in a hole right
from the start. Morrison then fol-
lowed this up with another goal for
Irma. These two goal had the
tendency to inject a little life into
the game, for which there was plenty
of room, and with about three min-
utes to go Carl Tory batted a loose
puck past the Irma goalie. The per-
iod ended without any further scor-
ing with Irma leading 2—1.

Before the second period was
three minutes old Hendricks had slip-
ped another goal into the Wain-

up. Busting up the Chicago mob-
sters, he reserves a million and a
half for himself and announces that
he is going to be a gentleman. With
the eternal mug Douglas as a side
kick, he goes in for culture, Greek
philosophy, the classic, futuristic art.

minster are due entirely to the Em-

pire agreements, and have reached
an increase of thirty-five per cent
over the record of 1930. Both

speeches were brief, neither taking
their full forty minutes.

Hon. Mackenzie King, upon open-
ing his address, said he could con-
gratulate the mover and seconder of
the address upon discharging their
duties to the satisfaction of the
Prime Minister and their fellow
members, but that he should have to
disagree with most of their remarks.
He considered that the by-elections
held during the last yeat or two,
more particularly in view of the in-
creased majorities given the Liberal
candidates, afford positive evidence
that the electors have lost faith in
the present administration, and fur-
thermore that the government's re-
luctance to hold un vicction fa South
Oxford, vacant since May by the
death of a Uiberal member was an
indication that they had lost faith
in themselves and were afraid to
face the electors again.

The Liberal leader (who has evi-
dently been “training down" since
last session) is manifestly in a mili-
tant mood and undoubtedly has the
backing of the party for an early
election. In reference to the speech
from the throne, he emphatically de-
nied there was any foundation for
the government's claim that return-
ing prosperity was indicated by ‘‘ex-
panding trade, improving revenues,
increasing employment, and a more
confident outlook upon the future.”
He declared that such a paragraph
had become merely routine in the
speech from the throne (for which
the government is responsible), and
meant no more now than it did in
1931-32-33, when events had proved
it entirely unfounded. Mr. King
quoted figures he had secured from
the Department of Trade and Com-
merce in which, he said, the increas-
ed employment index had been ar-
rived at by the inclusion of men in
relief camps, who were being paid
out of the public treasury. This
proved that the prosperity head-lined
in the not a prosperity
borne out by the facts but arrived
at by the manipulation of statistics
He also reviewed statistics in regard
to expanding trade and improving
revenues to show that these state-
ments were equally unreliable.

The Liberal assailed
policy of wheat
sal of the agricultural policy of the
country, and declared that unless
there was some provision for com-

press was

the

planning for scarcity instead of
plenty was “litle short of blas-

| The Fact F inders

An effort has been made in many
parts of the country to make it coms:
paratively easy for the farmer to get
his seed’ cleaned. The establishment
of local and district .seed cleaning
plants has been encouraged by gov-
ernment institutions, including thé
Dominion Experimental Farms, and
many have been in opetation for &
number of years. Where local clean+

and gossiped: it did them good to
talk. So now I stopped and sat down
beside these boys.

Yes, they were from a not distant |
reforestation camp, had the day
off—-the next day, too- and so had-
hitch-hiked in, twenty-five miles. Did

they were getting, to be sure (twen-
ty-five of it sent home, the remain-
ing five given to them), but they
had not yet seen their first pay day.
They were broke—dead broke. It
was wonderfully like meeting up
with three “casuals”, in some little
French .village back of the lines on
the western front.

I asked about their homes. I ask-
ed how they liked their job. Fine,
they said; they were being well fed,
“meat three times a day.” They de-
scribed their sleeping quarters, regu-
lar barracks I conjectured. Their re-
creations were as yet meager: they
had baseballs and boxing gloves.
Their work thus far was chiefly road
building and* characteristically, they

nothing from me, apparently ex-
pected nothing, were rather surprised
that I had stopped to talk with
them; but in my mind they had stir-
red poignant memories. I took their
names, gave them some money (not
much, enough to get a little food and
perhaps a place to sleep); and,
taking them across to the library in-
troduced them to one of the librart-

Yet I could not contrast the situ-

years before. They, at least in their
home land, were almost coddled. We

There are great differences today.
Today’s soldiers are not being poi-
soned by a propaganda of hatred,
nor being taught to kill; their work
is not that of destruction, it will
make our world more sightly and
livable, and, most important of all
perhaps, they are fighting the enemy
of depression that we are all fight-
ing.

“Rough-necks’ and degenerates
will of course be found among them.
There were such in the other army.

But these soldiers of today approxi-!

mate the ideal of William James's
famous essay,
lent of War’. The boys of our re-
forestation camps come from homes
of poverty, like those that gave us

what morale? What will they think
of us, secure in our homes behind
the lines? And what are we doing
to give them a better opinion of the
society for which they battle? Towns
near these camps will of course be
visited by many of these more than
300,000 boys. Will these towns do
anything for them? Will they meet
